Testimonials

“I guess I am just stupid” were the words we dreaded hearing from our 8 year-old son, Thomas, as he struggled with reading in third grade. We hated seeing that sense of resignment in his eyes that that was the only explanation he had for why he struggled with such a “basic” task. We knew there was something more.

When I was in third and fourth grade, I had a really hard time reading. If my teachers asked who wanted to read out loud, I never raised my hand. I was scared people would make fun of me because I could not spell a lot of words. I also read very slowly.
